Rode 42 mi (68 km) on my e-bike over the weekend to and from the Twin Cities Bird Festival at Mississippi Gateway Regional Park. Will post a few photos over the next few days!

If anyone here in #SaintPaul wants to read @rr4idic.bsky.social's book, @stpaulpublibrary.bsky.social has a copy.

Pretty good library.

I sent a message to my Representative's office, asking that she call for Congress to do its job and #ImpeachTrump .

I got a form letter response in which she and the staffer who presumably wrote it correctly say he is "unfit to serve".

Good.

But then she states that she would support impeachment "If any of my Republican colleagues bring forward articles", rather than calling for impeachment now and making the GOP Reps vote on it.

Require far better than this from McCollum, #SaintPaul .

☀️ 76 F / 24 C yesterday so I did a few laps (16km) around the lake

This from Representative McCollum is good to read, but not yet near enough.

Tell her to call for Congress to #ImpeachTrump and remove him, #SaintPaul .

QT Congresswoman Betty McCollum @mccollum.house.gov‬
2026 April 7

The President’s cabinet should take notice. The Speaker of the House must immediately call the House back into session. Congress must stop this President from committing these atrocities.
